Google, amongst other things, announced that they'll have a database of fonts available for web designers hosted on their servers. What that means for you (that is, a web developer/designer
) is that you'll have a huge benefit just because the fonts you link to are likely going to be cached by your users from other websites using the same service. Also, the most interesting thing here is that the fonts will be available for IE 6 and above, as well as for modern browsers! Yes, that's right! Even the users with the worst web browser (in history) will be able to see your site in its full glory! (You'll have to excuse me a bit, I'm very excited about this
)To show you how easy it is to implement the font, I've just pasted this in as an example:
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=DESIRED_FAMILY">
<style>
some_selector { font-family: "DESIRED_FAMILY", backup, fallback_to;
</style>
And that's it! No worries about anything else!For more info on this, you can visit:

http://code.google.com/webfonts - The fonts supported (I expect on more to come
)http://code.google.com/apis/webfonts/ - Font API
So, what do you think about this? In my personal opinion, just another step closer to print design...
